+I think this issue of multiple files in a torrent is another place that
+using an external special remote (or maybe one built into git-annex)
+is better than just specifying a download command. A special remote for
+torrents could use a temp directory that accumulates all the files in the
+torrent, and then pluck out specific files as git-annex requests them.
+
+When git-annex exits, the special remote could clean up any unused files.
